Greetings from Deutschland

Hello fellow members!

I've been the owner of a 2012 R58S (Laser Blue) for about a year now, since being stationed in Germany. I have always had an affinity for the Mini and an opportunity came along to pick one up for a good price.

At the moment, I have installed a JB+, AEM strut brace, K&N CAI (from original owner), Craven Speed Koala Intake Spacer, Hot and Cold side charge pipes, and the Alta DP back catless exhaust. Parts that are pending install: Evolve DP, Wilwood DP6 13" BBK, BC Racing Coilovers with custom spring rates, Alta FMIC, 22mm Rear Sway bar, Endlinks and control arms, and probably a few other parts I'm forgetting at the moment.

I have "blacked out" all of the chrome, including the side scuttles, except for the belt line by removing and painting. I have also tinted the tail lights, side turning lights, and front/rear reflectors.

I appreciate this forum, the wealth of knowledge that exists, and the willingness of members to help other members.

Welcome to NAM! Post some pictures of your Laser Blue MINI for us. That BBK is going to be a very nice addition. Great choice. Looks like you have a great list going. Good luck with the installs and let us know if you need any help!

Welcome. Now take your R58 directly to the Nordschleife and get the tires hot!
